Hi! No, the JavaScript client is not compatible with Deno, but if there is enough interest we could totally implement it. |
|
So, how connect from client with server? |
|
I'm worried about that too... |
|
people, it can be done with deno using the socket.io client This code works: |

this issue

This commit adds the ability to provide a list of transport
implementations to use when connecting to an Engine.IO server.
This can be used to use HTTP long-polling based on `fetch()`, instead
of the default implementation based on the `XMLHttpRequest` object.
```
import { Socket, Fetch, WebSocket } from "engine.io-client";
const socket = new Socket({
transports: [Fetch, WebSocket]
});
```
This is useful in some environments that do not provide a
`XMLHttpRequest` object, like Chrome extension background scripts.
> XMLHttpRequest() can't be called from a service worker, extension or
otherwise. Replace calls from your background script to
XMLHttpRequest() with calls to global fetch().

This is also useful when running the client with Deno or Bun, as it
allows to use the built-in `fetch()` method and `WebSocket` object,
instead of using the `xmlhttprequest-ssl` and `ws` Node.js packages.

This feature also comes with the ability to exclude the code related to
unused transports (a.k.a. "tree-shaking"):
```js
import { SocketWithoutUpgrade, WebSocket } from "engine.io-client";
const socket = new SocketWithoutUpgrade({
transports: [WebSocket]
});
```
In that case, the code related to HTTP long-polling and WebTransport
will be excluded from the final bundle.

@RomanFama592 does it work from a web browser? |
|
This is what is holding me back from using Deno. |
@coderextreme if you're code is running in a web browser, then you can just use the normal socket.io client. |
|
I would be very interested in a client implementation that runs on Deno! |

Recently, I was trying to use
import { io } from "https://cdn.socket.io/4.6.1/socket.io.esm.min.js";in a deno project, but it didn't seem to work. Nothing was emitted. 🤔 Maybe this project implements a fixed version of the socket.io client? I couldn't find it in the repo, but I hope it's somewhere in here. Thanks much!The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
